Hi Paul,

That may have been me. I'm running two RS70's on a single 120V 20A circuit to 
power my Herc II. I suspect they would also run just fine on a 15A circuit if 
you don't turn them on at precisely the same time. The two supplies running 
together are very unlikely to tax the breaker -- only the turn-on surge (to 
charge their filter caps) would likely do that.
